What if somebody wrote a potboiler but forgot to turn on the fire? Placebo Effect is uncommonly dull for a supposed thriller -- its plot a something-or-other about crooked feds, spies, assassins, and Bosnia, all coming to a head in what one would hope would be a Death and the Maiden style interrogation. No such luck. This placebo is precisely that; it's not even a sugar pill.
